Birds attaract all. Children find them even more attractive. Numerous folklores and stories across languages are therefore woven around the birds. Goraiya Aa Gayee, an illustrated novel for children in Hindi, weaves an attractive tapestry of gripping narrative centred on birds and environment in a simple language and conversational tone between the grandfather and the children that will keep children glued to it till the very end. Profusion of colour photographs forms added attarction of this book for young children.
